This may be a no-brainer under the HTA, but regarding GRT buses picking up (or dropping off) at a stop:
If that stop is in the right turn lane at an intersection (and the bus, after the stop, needs to merge left back into the through lane). Seems to be some confusion and some drivers will go around to make a right turn in front of the stopped bus regardless.
I've witnessed this a lot more lately, would it not make more sense to plan the bus stop another 30 feet or so away from the intersection to avoid this?
